I am such an introvert that when things in my world are in chaos, I get depressed and can't seem to recharge. Right now my house is just a mess, making my whole life feel like chaos.... but the good news is we are about a week from it being finished! (Hurray!!! and pics soon)

I sooo CAN.NOT.WAIT!!!

I hate not having a place that I can go "hide"... My boys are very loud people. Most boys I have been around are loud and noisy and busy and it wears me out! But right now I can't get away from them for a "time-out" or anything. So I am just stuck in the loud, noise and business. Oh and don't get me wrong, I love the noise and enjoy it being here because if it was gone, I would so not be myself but I really need that downtime to recharge and refresh myself.

I feel like I am on the edge of just collapsing or crying or both. I'm exhausted all the time, edgy and I feel like I can't relax.

But very soon, very, very, VERY soon! I will be able to hide a little. I will be able to lock my door, climb in bed and just relax.

You have probably noticed I have been quieter, not commenting much on your blog (or yours or yours or yours).... I am truly sorry. I just do not have words right now. It has taken me days to just get this short little post put together.

Anyway, soon I hope to be back to normal and back to writing and commenting.

Awww...I don't have kids but I can completely understand the "introvert/needs quiet recharging time" part. If I don't get my alone/quiet time regularly, I feel like I'm about to fall to pieces. I'm sending you quiet, relaxing thoughts! I hope you get some downtime soon.

You sound like me. Although my loud "boy" is my hubby and a daughter! I, too, need a place to hide and have my special time. I hope you get it soon. Congrats on the house almost being done! Can't wait to see pics!

I feel your pain. Even though my 4 boys are much older, they are still loud. Add a hubby in the mix and it gets really bad, especially when there are amped instruments involved. I can promise the chaos just comes in waves, some much bigger than others. I hope your wave is ending soon. Sending hugs and peace your way.

I can also sympathize with 3 boys! Luckily, I had a little peace last week as me and my hubby celebrated our 10th anniversary at a restaurant. He surprised me with a gorgeous diamond necklace from www.idonowidont.com and we danced all night.

Of course the next day was back to chaos and a messy house with my boys!
